Man shot and stabbed in Dunnigan

A man was airlifted from Dunnigan to UC Davis Medical Center early Monday morning with multiple stab wounds and an undetermined number of gunshot wounds.

A telephone call and email to the Yolo County Sheriff's Department for information on the incident were unreturned as of Monday night.

According to unofficial sources, the victim, described as a 49-year-old man, had a tremendous amount of blood loss and was in critical condition when responders arrived.

The Dunnigan Fire Department and Yolo County Sheriff's officers responded to County Road 1, or County Line Road, and CR-88 at 12:16 a.m. for a medical emergency call of a stabbing.

When responders removed the victim's clothing, they found he had been stabbed numerous times as well as shot. Due to the amount of blood, the exact number of gunshot wounds could not be determined, according to a source.

The victim's van was found one mile from the crime scene. His condition as of Monday night was unknown.

Dunnigan Fire Chief Chad Hawkins declined to comment on the incident other than to say the investigation is ongoing.
